Chapter 9: Q23P (page 248)

Until his seventies, Henri LaMothe (Figure 9-48.) excited audiences by belly-flopping from a height of 12 minto 30 cmof water. Assuming that he stops just as he reaches the bottom of the water and estimating his mass, find the magnitude of the impulse on him from the water.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude of the impulse from the water, J=1.1脳103kg.m/s

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the given information

The estimated mass of Henri,m=70kg

The height above the water,h=12m

The depth of water, d=30cm1m100cm=0.30m

02

Concept and Formula used for the given question

We can use the equation of impulse relating to the change in momentum to calculate the impulse of water. The speed of Henri at the surface of the water can be calculated using the kinematic equation which is given as.

J=鈭�PP=mv2-v1vf2=vi2+2ay

03

Calculation for the magnitude of the impulse on him from the water

The kinematic equation

vf2=vi2+2ay

Using this equation to calculate the velocity of Henri when he touches the surface of the water, we get

vf=0m/s2+2脳9.8m/s2脳12=15.34m/s

Now, using the impulse-momentum theorem, the impulse by the water is,

J=鈭�P=m脳v2-v1=70kg脳0m/s-15.34m/s=-1.1脳103kg.m/s

So, the magnitude of impulse is,

J=1.1脳103kg.m/s

Figure 9-73 shows an overhead view of two particles sliding at constant velocity over a frictionless surface. The particles have the same mass and the same initial speed V = 4.00 m/s, and they collide where their paths intersect. An xaxis is arranged to bisect the angle between their incoming paths, such that胃=40.0掳. The region to the right of the collision is divided into four lettered sections by the xaxis and four numbered dashed lines. In what region or along what line do the particles travel if the collision is (a) completely inelastic, (b) elastic, and (c) inelastic? What are their final speeds if the collision is (d) completely inelastic and (e) elastic?

A cart with mass 340 gmoving on a frictionless linear air track at an initial speed of 1.2 m/sundergoes an elastic collision with an initially stationary cart of unknown mass. After the collision, the first cart continues in its original direction at 0.66 m/s. (a) What is the mass of the second cart? (b) What is its speed after impact? (c) What is the speed of the two-cart center of mass?

Consider a box that explodes into two pieces while moving with a constant positive velocity along an x-axis. If one piece, with mass , ends up with positive velocity v1,then the second piece, with mass m2, could end up with (a) a positive velocity v2(Fig. 9-25a), (b) a negative velocity v2(Fig. 9-25b), or (c) zero velocity (Fig. 9-25c). Rank those three possible results for the second piece according to the corresponding magnitude of v1, the greatest first.

Two skaters, one with mass65kgand the other with mass 40kg, stand on an ice rink holding a pole of length 10mand negligible mass. Starting from the ends of the pole, the skaters pull themselves along the pole until they meet. How far does the 40kgskater move?

A certain radioactive (parent) nucleus transforms to a different (daughter) nucleus by emitting an electron and a neutrino. The parent nucleus was at rest at the origin of an XYcoordinate system. The electron moves away from the origin with linear momentum the neutrino moves away from the origin with linear momentum(1.2脳10-22kg.m/s)i^ . What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the linear momentum(6.4脳10-23kg.m/s)j^ of the daughter nucleus? (c) If the daughter nucleus has a mass of5.8脳10-26kg , what is its kinetic energy?
